Things to do for opkg, in a partial order:
1) Bug fixes
1.a) fix all code marked "XXX: BUG"
1.b) fix all outstanding opkg bugzilla bugs
1.c) Make sure Suggests, Recommends, (Enhances?), all work, (I know
some of these are not yet implemented)
1.d) Audit all dpkg package fields for both parsing and printing support.
1.e) "opkg status" and "opkg info" need to complain about unknown
packages. For that matter, these two commands should probably just
become aliases to the same functionality.
2) Implement new features
2.a) start with all "XXX: FEATURE" comments
2.b) implement all accepted opkg bugzilla feature requests, (also
check old post "Subject: Reinventing opkg" to see if we forgot
any of the good ideas we had once upon a time)
2.c) Add support for:
opkg install foo from some-feed
opkg install foo-0.4.3
opkg install foo-latest # Only needed if we add a feed-order-priority option
or something like that.
2.d) Experiment with making a small statically linked binary. Can we
eliminate some library calls, (glob, regcomp)? Can we get
something like uclibc to work well?
2.e) Add support for a deb-src in /etc/opkg.conf. (ARGH! Name clash
alert! In apt-land, deb-src means something very different than
what I would mean here. Hrm... Maybe src-deb would be cleaner? )
(What is this? Jamey 7/23/2002)
2.f) Figure out a clever chroot mechanism for running maintainer scripts in
offline_root mode.
2.g) Implement opkg history mechanism, with undo and redo? Keep track of
packages removed/installed by each call to opkg.
3) Cleanup the code
3.a) Start with all comments marked "XXX: CLEANUP"
